So that odd physical sensation? Maybe it’s your adrenal glands, not on full-emergency. Maybe it’s your hair, not on fire.

No global economic crashes. No fuel price spike. No (major) automaker declaring bankruptcy. No $3 billion government auto incentives. No European country likely to collapse this week. Nobody threatening U.S. national-debt defaults or government shutdowns. No supply disruptions from earthquakes, or tsunamis, or floods. No ruinous incentive wars. No overproduction.

In short, no crisis anywhere.

Look at the numbers. U.S. auto sales rose 3 percent in March, after a 4 percent gain in February and a 6 percent increase year to date. See, all single-digit changes? Last month every major automaker had a single-digit change in U.S. sales volume, from Volkswagen Group, up 8 percent, to Hyundai-Kia, down 8 percent.
